Ashton: Talk of Lions is 'McCall is just being nice'
Saracens and England wing Chris Ashton has dismissed claims by Mark McCall that he could be a contender for a Lion's berth.
He says his boss is "just being nice", despite Ashton set to leave Saracens for French side Toulon.
He also says that Lions boss Warren Gatland "seems like a nice fella", but doesn't have any kind of a relationship with him.
The British and Irish Lions are set to tour New Zealand in the summer.
